A 24-year-old blind woman with autism stunned a crowd at her local church in Massachusetts when she sang a special song in honor of LGBT Pride Month.
Lavender Darcangelo sang"Part of Your World" from Disney's"The Little Mermaid" for an LGBT cabaret performance at the First Parish Church in Fitchburg, Massachusetts.
Darcangelo shared that she chose to sing"Part of Your World" because she resonated with the song's meaning in many ways. Darcangelo shared that she could sing before she could talk, and growing up, it helped her persevere through challenges in her life. "I felt like I could relate to the girl because she's living in this box of this mermaid but she wants to live with the humans, so you feel marginalized in your home," she said.
"I knew that a singing career was the only option for her to be happy and have a happy career.” Wil shared with"GMA.""Even though I wasn't planning on becoming her adopted dad, I knew I had a duty to be her mentor always."
